Education in America is Failing Because the Goal is NOT to “Educating”

The signs are there — you just need to take their word for it and accept that they mean it. In this case, all of those who have tried to tell you that our schools have been taken over by Communists (Progressives, Socialists — all the same), THEY ARE RIGHT!

This Saturday, the Midwest Marxist Conference was held at Northwestern University’s Medill School of Journalism. The event was teeming with teachers who spoke about the new found bond between the radical socialists and their Teachers Union. The all-day event, which collected money to support Chicago Socialists and featured a communist bookstore, provided students on-campus along with the radical left community to plan the next phase in their activism.

You have got to start looking for the connections between all the htreads people HAVE been trying to explain it to you for a long, long time:

There are few people who I admire more than Glenn Beck. As a latter day Paul Revere he is alerting the American people to the to the real perils inherent in the Obama Administration’s drive to deliberately wreck the economy and impose a Marxist regime upon the United States.

But I can’t help but shiver every time he attacks the memory of the late Sen. Joe McCarthy, who suffered the same kind of abuse and worse from the Left as is Beck presently. And just as unfairly.

I knew Joe and was intimately familiar with him and his work – so much so that after his death his widow Jean chose me and my sometime co-author, the late Ralph de Toledano to write a definitive account of his career – an effort that failed because the only publisher willing to publish the book couldn’t offer us an advance sufficient to fund the research and travel required.

Beck should be aware that the extent of Soviet espionage and penetration of U.S. Institutions revealed in intercepted Soviet communications, makes clear that the remnants of the left wing anti-anti communist movement are very uncomfortable with the obvious conclusion that must be drawn from the revelation that many of those who liberals believed were victims of alleged McCarthyite smears were Soviet agents after all.

Having taught at both a Community College and a Vocational Technical Institute that was part of the K12 system I can attest to the accuracy of your article. The vocational school preached multi-culturalism and diversity but did provide students with skills they could use in the job market. The CC preached the same sociallist dogma but made every attempt to close programs that provided real world skills. Dumbing down was the result and far too many very good students could not get jobs, mostly because they were not competative. Instructors were evealuated by the students so if you wanted tenure, pander, pander, pander and your success was guaranteed. Forget producing a quality product.

Thanks for your comment. The really sad (and scary) part of that is how much the norm it is. No matter how loudly our education industry screams it isn’t true, the truth can still be found. And, when you find it, you learn that all of this has been done intentionally — so as to breed obedient sheeple.

To my way of thinking, that is the opposite of “education,” it’s indoctrination. But then, that is exactly what Dewey and the Progressives wanted: drones.
